I've had mixed luck with depending on the fit of the cover.

I can't find the one that was similar to that but included a cover. I ended up trimming off the storage compartment in my slicer, and it works much better.

I create this case for my 4 inch nanoVNA v2:


it contain stick holder, and box for calibration kit, not big.

Your radios/equipment might look good if cleaned ;)

Kent,
Here is a case I designed for my Nano. It uses Neo magnets to hold the
accessories cover in place. The VNA is basically wedged (comfortably) in
the opening.
I use a 6" SMA to BNC coax cable from CablesOnline, to take the strain off
the VNA's connectors. The blocks 'pinch' the cable jacket to keep it from
moving. The blocks are glued; E6000, that can be removed if necessary.
I only use Channel 0. This may give you some ideas. Check my dimensions
against your VNA. YMMV
